November 23, 2016 Montgomery Moro Museum Tour and Season Seven Update
Loyal Policies, We're very sorry to share that we will be delaying the release of Episode 11 of Our Fair City slightly. Our Fair City Season Seven will resume in two weeks on December 7th- until then, we've got something very exciting to share with you. For those who were not able to attend our Season Seven Launch party, we've created a video tour of the Montgomery Moro Museum, accompanied, of course, by Ol' Silty's audio tour. You can find that on our facebook at facebook.com/ourfaircityradio, on tumblr at theboardofdirectorslovesyou.tumblr.com, or on our website at www.ourfaircity.com.

Thank you so much for your support and your patience, and as always- We'll see you in the tunnels, Jeffrey Gardner Executive Produer HartLife NFP

October 12, 2016Mid-Season Break- Songs from Al's Bar
Welcome, Loyal Polices, to the Mid-Season Break! While the MolePeople are busy editing the second half of the season, we've got some fun stuff to share with you. Today we've got two songs used in the background of the show, either in Al's bar or on the radio, adapted and recorded by the cast, crew, and friends of Our Fair City. First, we have "Haul Away Mole," a MolePerson Dirt Shanty (adapted from the traditional tune "Haul Away Joe"), followed by "Rolling Down to Tunnel Three," a Lightning Rigger working song (adapted from Stan Rogers' classic "Rolling down to Old Maui").

September 28, 2016Episode 7.10- A Series of Inspired Follies
Each level of the Tower is different. Amenities and environments are tailored to the needs of the Policies who dwell there. Of course the Managerial class requires a greater degree of comfort than tunnel dwelling Policies. How else would our society function? The intricate, careful work of the Vice Presidents, Managers, and other leaders requires a clear head and gentle life.
You would not disturb this careful balance by demanding more than is your due, would you Loyal Policy? Of course not.

We'll be going on our mid-season break after this episode, but never fear- there will be non-episode releases every other week during the hiatus, including blooper reels, a Halloween Special written by Wolf 359's Gabriel Urbina, and more. Regular episodes of Our Fair City will resume on November 23, 2016.

September 13, 2016Episode 7.9- The StormHawk Revisited
Shun the Outsider, Loyal Policy. Their un-businesslike conduct and unguided thoughts will only lead you astray. Even if these Outsiders were once Loyal Policies of the HartLife Corporation- nothing can live outside of our Company's warm embrace. The Outside is dark, and full of wolves.

August 30, 2016Episode 7.8- The Executor
Everything and Everyone in HartLife has a proper place. When Policies are forced outside of their proper location, all order breaks down.
Aren't we lucky to have an upstanding and loyal Policy like Executor Teju Valentine to ensure our safety and security? He will surely do whatever is necessary to make sure we are cared for.
Whatever is necessary.

August 17, 2016Episode 7.7 - Orders are Orders
Loyal Policies- we all have our place in HartLife. The Directors guide us, fulfilling their immortal will as our Founders and Protectors. StreetSafe observes us at all times, making sure we are true in action to what resides in all of our hearts. The Actuaries prognosticate, prophesying the continued success of the Company as its will resounds through the ages.
It is a M.O.L.E.'s job to serve, to follow orders, and to obey. Nothing else. Listen with horror as one M.O.L.E. violates this sacred dictum, with terrifying results.

August 03, 2016Episode 7.6 - Family Road Trip
Loyal Policies- there is no chance for a fulfilling life outside of HartLife. Whatever you may hear in these recordings today- know that all Outsiders, whatever security or peace they may appear to have created for themselves, will die cold, lonely deaths in the frozen wastes outside our walls. The Outside is dark, and full of wolves. The Outside is dark, and full of wolves. The Outside is dark, and full of wolves.
Listen, and remember.

July 20, 2016Episode 7.5- A Morning without Muffins and Matcha
Loyal Policies- the True Histories have focused mostly on the lives of the Tunnel Dwellers, or those who have dealings with them. Today, we introduce you to one of the residents of the Tower Above- Veronika Hasher, Deputy Interior Designer. Marvel at her deft understanding of fashion, aesthetics, and flow as she navigates the foreign and often frightening culture of the Refugee Camp for the Tunnel dwellers. Will she return to her natural position higher in the Tower, or is she doomed to live for the rest of her life with her social inferiors? Find out as the story of Our Fair City...continues.
